Chi Kung: Way of Power

"Way of Power, by Lam Kam Chuen is a wonderful testimonial to Master Lam's teaching ability. Having taught for forty years myself many subjects including Physical Education, I have appreciated the simplicity and the effectiveness with which he introduces and explains this subject, one which was totally new to me. I have steadily followed his instructions now for several months, reaching his third level of practice. I have been most impressed with the realizatin of the effects that Master lam claims will occur, although, now nearing eighty, I have been somewhat embarrassed by the regeneration of my sexual energy. I rate the book as five star even though I have one criticism of it. I have been confused to a degree in his explanation of the five powers, martial arts movements. For example, in the movement for Metal Power, he asks us to visualize wielding a heavy axe and striking powerful blows with it as though into thick timber. I cannot relate this to his admonition to make the movement smooth, light and relaxed. Smooth, maybe, but light and relaxed.......no way.Similar advice is included for the other powers. The rest of the instruction in the book , however, is so superbly explained and illustrated that I cannot demerit the book for something which I may understand better the more I continue to practice."

"I highly recomend this book to anyone who is serious about their Qigong practice. Simple layout, great illustrations, and plenty of advanced techniques. It is not only a book on qigong but also a primer for the martial art Yiquan."

"Unfortunately Ms. F. Gabriele ("gabrielefrank2001") did not get the point. The author of "Chi Kung - Way of Power" explain in his book that the subject he presents may be named Chi Kung, or Da Cheng Chuan, or even Zhan Zhuang. In Mantak Chia's "Tao Yin" book, Mr. Chia explains that the names of these amazing exercises may be Tao Yin, Tao-In, Daoyin, Chi Kung, Qiqong, Qi Gong, including at least nine additional variations. So, what is the point?

The point are the exercices. Mr. Chuen's book "Chi Kung - Way of Power" is very good, very well explained and, most important, will be good for those searching for health care and better life quality. Undoubtedly, the book presents the advanced exercices introduced in the authors previous books "The Way of Energy" and "The Way of Healing". I have been practicing Chi Kung exercices for over 5 years and the results are great. Not a single headache during the lest 3 years, a flu, nothing. Practicing the exercices will help for faster recovering of jetlags as well. The overall health is greatly improved. To me, a morning practice stimulates my mind for a day of work; a final day practice (before the dinner) relaxes for a good sleeping night. What can be better? A hint: daily practice is very important. Enjoy."

"Like all martial arts book, this is a good supplement to your current training. This book focuses mostly on the very basics of qigong and internal martial arts-- standing. It has a very in-depth look at various standing exercises and a decent curriculum for the exercises. I wished there were more pictures to describe some of the exercises though. But the descriptions were extremely clear and I would recommend this to anyone who is practicing qigong or martial arts in general. "

"I have been doing the positions and I find them very de stressing. I try to mentally do the excercises when I find myself tensing up. I can't tell yet the long term effect of Chi Kung but I am hopeful that it will help me to be more physically healthy."
